Manchester United have called time on Owen Hargreaves' career at Old Trafford and will not offer him a new contract.
The decision almost certainly brings an end to the midfielder's playing days after a terrible time with knee problems.
The United manager has refused to write off the rest of his career.
'This has been a difficult decision knowing how hard the lad has worked to win back his fitness,' said Ferguson. 'But we have made it in the hope he will be able to resurrect his career elsewhere.'
His football nightmare began at the start of his second season with United when tendinitis, which first struck at Munich, deteriorated badly.
Not even the skills of famed Colorado knee specialist Richard Steadman could find a cure.
